The bride was married in a travelling suit of sand - colored tricotine with hat to match.

Bon voyage thru life. REMARKABLE GROWTH. There has been a wonderful growth in all lines of field and gar- den stuff thruout this community. Last week we were shown two ex- hibits of remarkable growth, the like of which some of the more ex- perienced say they never saw before. Jones & May had on exhibition a small branch of a plum tree which was clustered with fruit. The branch was not as large as the little finger of a man's hand and the plums on about a foot of the branch would more than 1111 a quart measure. They were clustered like a bunch of grapes. It was almost impossible to count them correctly. We tried and Anted over sixty. The other exhib- it was more of a freak growth. Dr. Corsaut brought into the office a po- tato vine that was covered with small potatoes from end to end. On the stock there were about two doz- en small potatoes that grew were the small vines branch out/from the stain stem. The potatoes' were pee - 1 fectly forined. In the hill there were ten fairly sized tubers • and Maul. 'more smaller potatoes. Dr. Corsant says he never saw a better crop of potatoes than he is digging from his garden this year,; GRAVEL SUPPLY The Municipal Council of the Village of Exeter desire to draw the attention of all par- ties who have promised - to de- liver road gravel for the pave- ment construction on Welling- ton street . (or Station street) that the supply of gravel is needed and would ask that an early delivery be made at once. J. SENIOR, Clerk. HEA11iAN AND CREECH WIN TROPHY. .

OPENED DOOR; , GUN DISCHARGED Mrs. Joseph . Nicols, of Fullerton, near Gould's Corners, was shot in the arm, shattering the bone, as she opened the door of a shed on a lot near her home. It appears that Nor- man 14litch.ell, has honey stored in the place and fearing thieves, set a trap by placing a gun in such a position that when the door opened the gun would be discharged. Sun- day evening Mrs. Nichols was round- ing up her chickens and a couple of then ran under the door of the shed. On opening the door the gun went off, the contents lodging in her arta between the wrist and the elbow.. Dr Murray was called and rendered first aid. The practice of placing a gun in such a- position is contrary to law and just what steps are to be taken in the matter we have not heard. /��` .1: - i -�„ ID �I- —' • -- �� ITM-4 0� i s� -- i�1— le -;raj ,• '- - i -ice\ \ i'• —• _ -:•_.. _ ��. ::\\ —--'\�•.\\�Il�- -:� -- - ..i•.• THE EXETER FAIR Monday & Tuesday September 20th and 21st —Fine Exhibits Many Good Sports Big Crowds Choice Live Stock Great Speed Trials Splendid Concert ing for two weeks with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. H.
